Pharmacare Act  I would like to repeat some of my remarks made during my speech at second reading. I have asked, time and time again, for any of the NDP-Liberal costly coalition members to tell me how many provincial ministers asked for a pharmacare bill at a federal-provincial-territorial meeting. Not one of the Liberal ministers, Liberal members or NDP members actually answered me.

Pharmacare Act  I would love for him to table the information, the correspondence, regarding which health ministers, how many health ministers, wrote to this long, nine-year costly coalition, wrote to the federal health minister, to say that the first thing one should do after the 2020 election would be to try to bring in a pharmacare plan. The answer is zero.

Pharmacare Act  Conservatives will not stand idly by while the NDP-Liberals systematically break our country. If we form government, we would undertake the task to fix the immense damage this costly coalition has done. We would axe the tax. We would build the homes. We would fix the budget, and we would stop the crime. Let us bring it home.

Carbon Tax  Conservatives will axe the carbon tax for all for good, because we know it is all economic pain and no environmental gain and is just not worth the cost. Until then, the NDP-Liberal costly coalition should support the common-sense option to give Canadians just a little bit of a break this summer.

Pharmacare Act  Madam Speaker, it is interesting here in the House, the whole idea, whether the NDP-Liberal costly coalition likes it or not, of actually having a robust debate, especially when there are significant differences of opinion. Of course, that is why we are here tonight. We on this side of the House believe that legislation should be debated, and debated robustly, in spite of the fact of the trickery and antics used by the costly coalition to move closure on the bill.

Electoral Participation Act  Does the member agree that it is time for her party to stop protecting its leader's pension, stop propping up the corrupt Liberal-NDP government, help put an end to Canadians' misery and call a carbon tax election now so that common-sense Conservatives can axe the tax and Canadians can kick this costly coalition to the curb?

Finance  They need to know if he is going to continue down the same extremist, woke, wacko policy, ideologically driven path as the current Liberal-NDP Prime Minister. Will the costly coalition step up, give Carney some courage and get him to testify at the finance committee, yes or no?

Pharmacare Act  However, because the NDP-Liberals were so desperate to ram Bill C-64 through Parliament, their voices were not heard. It astounds me that the costly coalition is trying to tout the pamphlet as being historic and groundbreaking, when the Liberals neglected to listen to the very people who would be most impacted by the shoddy work of the file.

Health committee  With the amount of debt and the debt servicing costs that are happening now in this country, the debt servicing costs are more than $1 billion, with a “b”, every single week—every week—which, sadly, we know is more than the Canada health transfer. It is more than that because this Prime Minister of the costly coalition believed that interest rates would never go up. Of course, there's the infamous quote that budgets balance themselves. We know that this costly coalition continues to have an ongoing deficit spending position, which was never the expectation of any government in the history of the free world.

Pharmacare Act  They outright ignore all the misgivings about the need for the bill and especially the costs associated with implementing it, as the Parliamentary Budget Officer told us. The survival of the costly coalition is at stake. They are trying once again to establish an even more centralist government, forgetting the country's federative nature and attempting to make it a unitary state. The government should be more pragmatic and less ideological about this bill, otherwise all its efforts will be counterproductive.

Health committee  The government will be more than happy to take care of your every want and need.” This is exactly what we hear from this NDP-Liberal costly coalition every single day, who say, “Don't worry. We're going to build more houses. We'll just invest some money.” What happens? They build fewer houses. This is the classic for me: Don't worry, because in their platform in 2021, the costly coalition said they were going to invest $4.5 billion in the Canada mental health transfer.

Pharmacare Act  First of all, we need to pick a group of experts, which we had some ideas on at committee. They were rejected by the costly coalition. The other part of it is asking, what is the best insulin? What is the best medication, the pills, available to treat diabetes? Why is Ozempic not here? How do we make those pharmacoeconomic decisions when we know that some medications are incredibly cheap but not as effective as the more expensive medications?

Pharmacare Act  They fear spending money on anything except democracy. All they want to do is ram legislation through, in their costly coalition partnership, with respect to things they sadly do not understand. The only other thing the NDP members want to spend money on is delaying the date of the election by one week so that many of them can access their pensions, which is money spent on behalf of Canadians.

Health committee  My father—God rest his soul—has been gone for 30 years. He would say that the NDP-Liberal costly coalition could not manage a marble game, which appears to be true. That being said, the other thing that Mr. Julian talked about was testimony that we heard. We heard testimony, testimony and testimony.

Business of Supply  After nine years of the Liberal-NDP government, it is no longer a stretch to say that Canadians are being robbed not only of the luxuries they used to enjoy, but also of their hard-earned money and the bare necessities of life. We all know that the biggest thief of all is this costly coalition's tax-and-spend regime, a regime that takes from the poor and gives to the rich, that does nothing to help the environment and that leaves Canadians with less and less money at the end of every month.
